Looking for inspiration, I found another short popular poem by Silverstein:

“i made myself a snowball
As perfect as can be.
I thought I’d keep it as a pet,
And let it sleep with me.
I made it some pajamas
And a pillow for it’s head.
Then last night it ran away,
But first – It wet the bed.”

And…another poem from a favorite author, Phyllis McGinley:

Office Party

This holy night in open forum Miss Mcintosh, who handles Files,Has lost one shoe and her decorum. Stately, the frozen chairman smiles

On Media, desperately vocal. Credit, though they have lost their hopesOf edging toward an early Local, Finger their bonus envelopes.

The glassy boys, the bursting girls Of Copy, start a Conga clatterTo a swung carol. Limply curls The final sandwich on the platter
